Who's the comic here? Alec Baldwin is entertained by his daughter Ireland as the duo jet in to LA for the SAG Awards

Last night he was lapping up the attention at the SAG Awards after scooping the prize for Best Actor in a Comedy Series.

But Alec Baldwin had to play second fiddle to his teenage daughter Ireland earlier in the weekend as she kept him entertained with her own comedic prowess.

The father-daughter duo flew into Los Angeles on Saturday ahead of last night's awards ceremony, and 16-year-old Ireland had her father giggling as she pulled a series of funny expressions as they waited for their car.

While Alec, 53, looked smart in trousers, a blazer and scarf, the teenager was scruffy in tracksuit bottoms, a jumper and messy ponytail.

Ireland lives in California with her mother Kim Basinger most of the time, while Baldwin resides in New York.

His relationship with his daughter has been fraught with scandal over the years as he and Basinger engaged in a bitter and very public custody battle following their divorce in 2002.

In 2007 Alec made headlines when a heated voice mail he left for Ireland, in which he called her a 'rude, thoughtless little pig', was leaked to the press.

In his book A Promise To Ourselves, the actor explained: 'She was off for spring break with her mother and her phone was
turned off for 10 consecutive days ... This had gone on for years now
and ... when the beep came, I snapped.'

He revealed that he considered suicide after facing the backlash over the voice mail.In
the book, Baldwin wrote: 'Driving up the Taconic Parkway, heading to an
inn in the Berkshire Mountains, I began to think about what little town
I would repair to in order to commit suicide.

'What semi-remote Massachusetts state park could I hike deep into and overdose there?

'When I returned to New York, the thought of jumping out the window of my apartment was with me every night for weeks.'

Despite his despair, Baldwin says his love for his daughter stopped him doing anything.'I love my daughter with all my heart.'
